I do not really have any clues if such topic or discussion already exist before and if there is any discussion of such nature before then you can call my attention to it. Although it is something that I feel we should discuss about with we hearing our opinion and experience and how the result was like if we have ever encountered such before.
I have heard many stories and people talking about getting game odds from unknown insane(mad) people and some say they get it from the ones they know and in some cases, the games turns out to be real with lots of testimonies. I personally have a friend who told me same thing too that there was a guy that lives within their street who got odds from an insane man close to a junction when he was about to board a cab. He said his friend was just passing by when the insane man stopped him and told him to check out the odds and he was very confused, furious and a bit angered but he too has heard things of that nature so he controlled himself and collected it, he played it and won a good amount of money. Winning such, he went scouting for the insane man so he could be able to reciprocate the goodwill but he could not see the man and he asked people around there and they told him that they've not seen the man for some days and he was told that the insane man has been there for some days before the occurrence but after their encounter that day he was no where to be found around that area.
I was wondering if any member here has had such experience before or they know somebody who has had such as well because to me it looks like something beyond the ordinary, it is unexplainable how an insane man would give odds to somebody to play and in some cases, they are unknown within the premises or environment were they have encounter and the odds turns out to be a good one. Sometimes people tell about being given odds in the dream to play and they do which turns out to a good one for them and all these keeps making me curious about these scenarios if it is ordinary or not, coupled with the superstitious believe and lots of other things they say.
Well, though i sure believe in the supernatural, that is that the spiritual realm controls the physical realm that we humans dwell in, but when it comes to matters that has to do with gambling, it's really hard for me to believe most of such stories that fly around about mad people giving sane people game odds to play, which usually turn out to be the right odd...
Let me be honest, I've witness one myself, though in this case, it wasn't an insane man that gave the odd, it was a sane person.
I had a boss back then I was serving, a man walked into our business premises and handed over to my boss a piece of paper with game odds written on it, and told my boss to use big money to play it and then left immediately..
My boss being confused, threw away the piece of paper and someone else picked it up and then went into a lotto shop and played the numbers written on the paper.
By the next day, the story around the neighborhood was that the dude who picked the paper won a huge amount of money and was celebrating it somewhere, my boss was disappointed. The man who gave the game odd later in the day came by and asked my boss if he played the game odds, my boss told him no, that he mistakenly threw the piece of paper away, the man called my boss a big fool and left with anger.
Such things does happen, but I've never seen it happen with an insane person in the picture, I've only heard about such in stories.
Sometimes, we can not decipher situations of such nature and how to follow it up. In some cases, when such scenario just happens, one would just be confused as to what to do. I believe your boss was a bit confused and sceptical about what the man said because he has no proven records and coupled with the fact that he said your boss should play with a big money which there is no guarantee it would win or not. I bet you if it were to be an insane man that gave your boss that paper, your boss would have given it a try reasons being this myth that insane people are good at doing such and maybe he could have won it just like the other man who picked up the paper were your boss threw it to.
We just can not tell when any of such situations would occur and how mentality prepared one is to be able to face such. This is the reason why we are advised to gamble for fun and with what we can afford to loose because gambling is very risky and nothing is guaranteed. It is either you win or you lose.
